There are a number of ways to do this, but I find the most effective to be a third-party PreferencePane for OS X, RCDefaultApp. You can find it here:
macupdate.com/info.php/id/14618
RCDefaultApp, once installed, will show up in the System Preferences and allow you to set all kinds of default settings, such as preferred email or FTP clients, MIME defaults, type/creator defaults, and more!
I recommend all Mac users have it installed.

Re: How do I change the default application for opening a file?
Thu, November 9, 2006 - 8:44 AMI should add that RCDefaultApp allows control of far more than just application defaults for files. It can also control which URL handlers point to which applications.
